Full Disclosure: I didn't actually draw those stick-figures.

As an anime fan, though, I DO support these laws, because frankly I'm sick of the general public thinking anime = "perverted drawings" or other disgusting things.

I see not why people care for public acceptance/image, 90% of the UK don't know what anime is, and the ones who can "identify" anime only think stuff like Pokemon or Naruto.
I don't care if they think i watch that or the handful who think it's perverted crap think im watching porn i still don't care, i like what i do, don't give a damn what others think... especially them who have no knowledge of anything.

Australia's freedom of speech.

Seriously though, it's sad how much this mirrors the world in all of those post-apocalyptic/end-of-times stories that we've all heard over and over.

There are perfectly normal people who have a positive coexistence with society and don't intend to harm anyone, including minors, who enjoy the stuff. Some of whom cannot control where their sexual impulses are directed. Others of whom are not even that interested in real minors, but like the artistic representation of things that cannot/should not happen in real life, including sexual illustrations of minors. And even others who might feel attracted to real minors, but are mature enough to recognize the fault in that line of thought and, instead, decide to take their impulses out on fictional material. There are human impulses behind these things, too, you know.

You don't have to agree with their personal hobbies, but fearing these people as some sort of sexual predator does society no justice at all. It's ignorant of nature, life, and reality.

Unless, of course, you want to have YOUR Psycho-Pass evaluated every time you walk/drive through any public checkpoint.

Whatever. I most certainly will not be losing a wink of sleep over the fate of some perverts who get their rocks off drawing naked children.

There's nothing that sets any freedom of speech in stone in Australia in any constitutional or statutory declaration of rights. For some reason, people seem to believe that we have freedom of speech here. There is limited (political speech) protection, but it's a complicated matter.

Also, I had no idea that polls were in favour of internet filtering in Australia. Guess that news just passed me by.

I agree with yah.

Honestly, with you guys who think that person needs to get jailed because he's "gross" and merely for having not-real fictional images about sexualized young girls...

The way I see it, he didn't do any harm to any real children, and I don't know how the police caught him having such images in his computer, but I don't think he's spreading those images (because if he did, he probably would be charged for something else)

Just like Akamatsu said, it does not involve real children, so no real harm was done to actual children.

I guess the next day you probably will get arrested as terrorist if you downloaded several images of guns and rifles to your computer.

And everyone who owns Rambo 4 on DVD or Blu-ray will be on trial since there are scenes depicting children being murdered, one being stabbed while being stepped on and another being thrown into a burning house by a Burmese soldier.

Um, I'm 100% okay with locking pedophiles in a cage.

I don't see aversion to child porn as moral superiority. More like the minimum necessary morality to be considered a civilized human being.
